Sorting droplet (cells) process is critically important in some biological and medical applications, e.g., disease diagnosis and cellular behavior investigation. The previously reported methods typically exert environmental stress (high temperature, magnetic field, contamination from other fluids, etc.) on the droplets. This can cause a reduction of sample viability after the sorting process. We will present a microfluidic sorter that has a cantilever acting as a diverter. The cantilever is actuated by two flexible membranes powered by on-chip ECF (Electro-conjugate Fluid) micropumps. ECF is a type of functional and dielectric oil, which can generate a fluid flow (called ECF jet) when we apply a high DC voltage to the electrodes (anode & cathode). The vertically flexible membranes are made of silicone elastomers. In the device, a T-junction droplet generator is used to provide W/O (water in oil) droplets. The fabrication of the sorter is based on the photolithographic patterning of thick negative tone photoresists (KMPR and SU-8) and the normal electroforming. We successfully fabricated the ECF sorter.

In this paper, a design of fractional order fuzzy PID controller is presented for position-tracking control of an electro-hydraulic rotary actuator (EHRA) which uses a hydraulic rotary as the end-effector under different working conditions. The proposed controller combines between fractional order PID (FOPID) controller and an intelligent fuzzy rule. In detail, fractional order PID controller with two additional parameters changes the integer order of integral and derivative functions in conventional PID to non-integer order which help to improve tracking, robustness and stability of control performance. A fuzzy logic control system is designed to optimize the parameters of FOPID in term of variant requirements. To verify the proposed controller, simulations by using co-simulation between AMESim and Matlab are carried out. Furthermore, a comparative study with other controllers has been done to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

This paper deals with the problem of stability of one dimensional vehicle chain with double integral terms. Disturbance inputs can affect the performance of vehicle chain and furthermore can lead to instability namely called string instability. It is proposed a distributed adaptive sliding mode control for each vehicle. In the proposed distributed adaptive sliding mode controller it is not necessary to know the value of upper and lower bounds of disturbance inputs. only the information of two successive vehicles in front is enough to implement the controller, this means that each vehicle is connected unidirectionally in the vehicle chain with no information of the following vehicles. We prove that with such condition it is possible to guarantee string stability in the vehicle chain. Furthermore, constant spacing error between the vehicles without using time headway policy, is used. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown as well with simulation results.

Hot embossing is a widely used technique for making fine patterns necessary for electronic devices, wearable devices, microfluidic channels and optical devices. In the conventional hot embossing process, heat and pressure are applied to a polymer film using a stamp having a pattern previously engraved. This method is disadvantageous in that it takes only a shape stamped on the stamp, and it takes a lot of time and cost to change the shape or change the stamp to replace the stamp. To improve this point, the research group proposed an impact — based hot embossing process technology capable of free-form patterns, and developed equipment to realize this. And experiments are conducted to take a pattern of several tens of micrometers in size. For this purpose, we have developed an electromagnetic actuator for implementing impact type hot embossing and have researched to reduce the size of the actuator compared to previous studies. The patterning experiment is performed using the developed device and idea, and it is possible to fabricate dot shaped fine patterns of 60 um diameter. The size of the pattern generated by using this method was confirmed by a confocal microscope, and it was found through the proposed hot embossing process that the desired shape could be realized at any position using the proposed technique.

In this paper, a robust droop-based control structure is developed in primary level of a hierarchical control scheme for robust performance and robust stability against parametric and topological uncertainties to 1) improve the robust stability and robust performance 2) resolve drawbacks of previously reported methods. Considering droop control scheme, the conventional hierarchical control structure is developed and the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is investigated considering parametric and topological uncertainties. For the sake of drawing a picture to address how we can realize a resilient microgrid including a hierarchical control structure and providing enough robustness against mentioned uncertainties, signal disturbances, and different types of nonlinearity, some special recommendations are also provided. Finally, to prove the usefulness of the proposed controller, simulation studies are done on a microgrid which includes several distributed generation units with local loads.

For autonomous vehicles (AVs), which when deployed in urban areas are called “pods”, to be used as part of a commercially viable low-cost urban transport system, they will need to operate efficiently. Among ways to achieve efficiency, is to minimise time vehicles are not serving users. To reduce the amount of wasted time, this paper presents a novel approach for distribution of AVs within an urban environment. Our approach uses evolutionary computation, in the form of a genetic algorithm (GA), which is applied to a simulation of an intelligent transportation service, operating in the city of Coventry, UK. The goal of the GA is to optimise distribution of pods, to reduce the amount of user waiting time. To test the algorithm, real-world transport data was obtained for Coventry, which in turn was processed to generate user demand patterns. Results from the study showed a 30% increase in the number of successful journeys completed in a 24 hours, compared to a random distribution. The implications of these findings could yield significant benefits for fleet management companies. These include increases in profits per day, a decrease in capital cost, and better energy efficiency. The algorithm could also be adapted to any service offering pick up and drop of points, including package delivery and transportation of goods.

Extensive testing of a battery management system (BMS) on real battery storage system (BSS) requires lots of efforts in setting up and configuring the hardware as well as protecting the system from unpredictable faults during the test. To overcome this complexity, a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation tool is employed and integrated to the BMS test system. By using this tool, it allows to push the tested system up to the operational limits, where may incur potential faults or accidents, to examine all possible test cases within the simulation environment. In this paper, an advanced HIL-based virtual battery module (VBM), consists of one “live” cell connected in series with fifteen simulated cells, is introduced for the purposes of testing the BMS components. First, the complete cell model is built and validated using real world driving cycle while the HIL-based VBM is then exercised under an Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule (UDDS) driving cycle to ensure it is fully working and ready for the BMS testing in real-time. Finally, commissioning of the whole system is performed to guarantee the stable operation of the system for the BMS evaluation.

To predict the remaining discharge energy of a battery, it is significant to have an accurate prediction of its end of discharge time (EoDT). In recent studies, the EoDT is predicted by assuming that the battery load profile (current or power) is a priori known. However, in real-world applications future load on a battery is typically unknown with high dynamics and transients. Therefore, predicting battery EoDT in an online manner can be very challenging. The purpose of this paper is to derive a load prediction method for capturing historical charge/discharge behaviour of a battery to generate the most probable future usage of it, enabling an accurate EoDT prediction. This method is based on a two layer Markov model for the load extrapolation and iterative model-based estimation. To develop the proposed concept, lithium-ion batteries are selected and the numerical simulation results show an improvement in terms of the accuracy of the EoDT prediction compared to methods presented in the literature.

With the increasing amount of electric vehicles (EVs), Vehicle to Grid (V2G) technology has attracted enormous attention from researchers and industries. The major benefit of using V2G is to enable the interaction between EVs and grid. For example, EV batteries can work as responsive sources to provide auxiliary support to a power grid. This paper presents an optimal day-ahead scheduling strategy for a fleet of EVs plugged-in to the grid using V2G operation. Here, lithium-ion EV batteries are managed to reduce peak load constrains in a microgrid and to reduce energy bill. The proposed scheduling scheme is computed based on a linearized model of the lithium-ion battery with an optimization approach considering battery and grid constraints. A case study with an industrial microgrid application is carried out by simulations, to prove the advantages of the proposed technique.

This research article introduces an electroactive actuator based on sulfonated chitosan (ScS), ionic liquid and graphene oxide (Go). To maintain the biocompatibility of the chitosan and to increase the actuation performance, a biocompatible ionic liquid such as ethyl, methylimidazolium-trifluoro methane sulfonated (Emi-Tfms) as mobile solvent was used for dry-type actuation. And Go-reinforced ScS films obtained through a simple solvent casting method which were extensively investigated because of better electro-chemo-mechanical properties and higher actuation performances. FE-SEM, XRD, FT-IR, and Raman spectra were used to investigate the interaction mechanism between Go and ScS. The harmonic and step responses of Go and ScS composite actuator shows large bending deformations under low electric voltages.
